Alternate Row Coloring
Hi, I came accross a formula that can be used as a condition in
Conditional Formatting for Alternate Row Coloring. The formula is " =AND(MOD(ROW(),2),COUNTA($A1:$C1)) ". Now this formula works really nice, however it is only limited to one color condition for example "Yellow", while the second color remains as the background color example "White". If I want to add a second color other than "White" say "Red" what change do I need to make to the above formula so that I can insert it as a 2nd condition in the Conditional formatting. So that I can have Yellow and Red alternating Appreciate any help. Thankyou Ed |

=MOD(ROW(),2) for yellow
=NOT(AND(MOD(ROW(),2)) for red The second condition COUNTA($A1:$C1) limits the scope of CF to rows in which one of cells A:C are not blank. -- Regards!

I believe you left out one right bracket and I think that:
=MOD(ROW(),0) will also produce the RED background.

In your case - you may also consider to format ALL rows in one of the colors
and use only ONE CF coloring for the ODD or EVEN rows. Micky "Stefi" wrote: Of course, I forgot to delete it, thank you for the warning! -- Regards!
